An Interesting Meeting Here Yesterday-Can didatos for State and Courtly Offices. Tho oampaign was formally opened in Oconeo county on Tuesday, the 10th in stant, at Walhalla. County Chairman M S. Stribling called the meeting to order In tho Court House at ll o'olock. The ex ercises woro oponod with prayer by Hov. J. M. McGuire. Chairman Stribling, in a few woll ehoseu remarks, expressed the sacred ness of tho ballot, and the importance of eleotiug able, clean and worthy men to otllco. Tho candidatos should measuro nu to the high tests of morality, honesty abd ability. Tho candidates for Railroad Commis sioner spoke tlrst aud in the order named. Hon. W. Royed Evans bogan by thank ing the people of Oe moe for the liberal support given biro ?wo years ago. lu evout of < ironer's candidate should not be iu tho socoud race, he would again so licit our suffrage. Ho briefly recounted his services in various public capacities, aud spoke of the opportunities for men tal trainiug ho had onjoyed, whereby bo was equipped for tho discharge of the ollie ?al duty. Ho thought tho law should bo changed so that t he salaries of tho Commissioners would bo paid by tho State aud not by tho railroads. Freo passes should also bo prohibited. Freight \ ates should also be reduced. A com parison of tho freight rates iu three States shows our rates the highest, and they should bo carefully rovisod. Hon. C. W. Garr?s said ho was glad to moot again an Oconee audiouco. He waa hore six yours ago, and comos again to ask le-election. Kales oil shipments within the State aro in tho jurisdiction of our commission, but rates on all inter st.t'e shipments aro not. Local rates aro lower than in North Carolina or Vir ginia. Ho believed in fair aud just as sessment, of capital for taxation. He had boon instrumental in bringing about prompt set i lenient for loss and damngo of roods by vesting tho local agonts with authority to set tic snob on proson ta tton when ho linds them well founded. Ho had boon faithful to tho people of South Carolina in tho discharge of duty. Capt. H. J. Gignilliat, of Seneca, was introduced amid much applause. "Home, Sweet Homo," how dear these words. He was proud of his home being in Oco neo county. Ho had no now hobby, but be had experionco in tho railroad busi ness; bo had boon rubbed by tho pooplo on ono hand and by the railroads on the other. Thoro should bo at least one practical railroad man on tho board. Wo need practical results aud these results cannot bo obtained by fine speaking. We want work, not hot-air talks. Ho closed ?mid enthusiastic applause. Hon. Johu G. Mobley was thankful for tho llattoring support given him hore two years ago. Ho thought tho Com mission should do moro for .tho peoplo. Ho did not belie ? the com missioners woro doing their full duty. Thoro should bo moro and hotter depots. Freight ratos should bo reduced. In niuo cases out of ton wo aro paying higher rates than in Georgia, North Carolina and . Virginia. Ho was a farmer, also a trained lawyer. Ho had also represented his county, Fairftold, in tho Legislature, and served two teams as director of the penitentiary. Tho proposition is up to tho people to govern the railroads, or be governed by thom. Tho railroads do not feel tho weight of our present commis sion. It is like a gnat on a bull's horn. The Fishing Creek wreck, with its loss of lifo, he thought was duo to neglect of duty. The great railroad syndicates aro making war on tho rights of tho people. Wo should check tho tendencies toward such combination. Trains should bo run on schedule time. Law should bo su preme. Hon. John II. Karlo announced his platform as honesty in both private aud public lifo. Ho bolioved a man who v .nhl give a bribo to any man to vote k 1- him, would take a bribe himself when elected. The demurrage rates should bo revised. Tho railroads have too great advantages. Freight rates aro too high. Tho railroads made a net profit of ?4,000,000 In South Carolina last year. Wo ought to havo moro and better depots. .lames Cansler, of Tirzah, was pre vented by sickness from being presont. A telegram was read from him by Mr. Earle. A timely lotter was road by Chairman Stribling from Gov. Hoyward, which elicited much applause. Tho candidates for Congress followed. I. IL McCalla arraigned tho policy of tho Republican administration, and urged that all I lemon ats should stand together in tho faco of our common enemy. Hon. Wyatt Aiken was greeted with applause. It was for the peoplo to say how ho had served them. He reviewed tho establishment of rural routes, and told of his service 011 tho committee op pensions. Ho had resurrected forty-six claims of worthy claimants, ono of thom hoing from this district. Candidates for county oflicos followed Tho candidates for Houso of ltopre sontativos spoke briolly in the following order: J. M. Whitmiro, W. N. Bruce, E. E. Vernor, J. W. Todd. Lewis J King withdrew from tho raco. W. M. Drown and J. K. Karlo, two of tho candidates for tho Senate, spoke briefly, J. W. Sholor, also a candidato for th" Senate, stated that as this wan his homo, and much timo had already boon consumed, ho would not speak at this mooting. West Union.
